Peter Pan, Chapter VI. THE LITTLE HOUSE, sentence 207

“That doesn’t matter,” said Peter, as if he were the only person present who knew all about it, though he was really the one who knew least.

Who acts: That, Peter, person present, one · What happens: not matter, say, be, know · To what, where: person present, one · Speech: someone speaks here
